1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the congregation of Thessalonians in God a Father of us and Lord Jesus Anointed;

2 favor to you and peace from God a Father of us, and Lord Jesus Anointed.

3 To give thanks we are bound to the God always concerning you, brethren, as proper it is, because is growing fast the faith of you, and abounds the love of one of each of all of you for each other;

4 so that us ourselves in you to boast among the congregation of the God, on account of the patience of you and of faith, in all the persecutions of you and the afflictions, which you endure;

5 a token of the righteous judgment of the God, for that to be deemed worthy you of the kingdom of the God, on behalf of which also you suffer.

6 If indeed a just thing with God, to give in return to those afflicting you affliction,

7 and to you to those being afflicted a relaxation with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with messengers of power of himself,

8 in a fire of flame, executing retributive justice to those not knowing God, and to those not being obedient to the glad tidings of the Lord of us Jesus Anointed;

9 who a just penalty shall pay, destruction age–lasting, from face to the Lord and from the glory of the strength of him,

10 when he may come to be glorified in the holy ones of himself and to be admired in all those having believed, (because was believed the testimony of us to you,) in the day that.

11 For which also we pray always concerning you, that you may be counted worthy of the calling the God of us, and may fill up every good intention of goodness and work of faith in power;

12 so that may be glorified the name of the Lord of us Jesus Anointed in you, and you in him, according to the favor of the God of us and Lord Jesus Anointed.

1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the people of the congregation in Thessalonica, who belong to God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.

3 Our friends, we should thank God at all times for you. It is right for us to do so, because your faith is growing so much and the love each of you has for the other abounds toward each other.

4 That is why we boast rejoicehave glory about you in the congregations of God. We boast rejoicehave glory about the way you continue to endure and believe through all the persecutions and sufferings you experience.

5 All of this proves that God’s judgment is just, and as a result, you will become worthy of his Kingdom, for which you are suffering.

6 It is a righteous thing for God to repay with affliction great suffering and distress those who afflict you.

7 You who are afflicted rest with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power in flaming fire.

8 They will render vengeance to those who do not know God, and to those who do not obey the good news of our Lord Jesus.

9 They will suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the Lord and from the glory of his might.

10 He will then come to be glorified in his holy ones, and to be marveled at by all those who believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

11 We pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and every work of faith with power.

12 May the name of our Lord Jesus be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
